Key Features
- 5000mAh High Capacity — The substantial 5000mAh capacity ensures extended runtime during your RC sessions, allowing you to enjoy longer driving periods before requiring a recharge. This capacity is particularly beneficial for club racers and competitive drivers who need reliable power across multiple heats or practice runs.
- 14.8V 4S Configuration — This four-cell lithium polymer pack delivers 14.8 volts nominal voltage, providing the optimal power delivery for brushless motor systems commonly found in modern RC cars and trucks. The 4S configuration strikes an excellent balance between power output and battery efficiency.
- 50C Maximum Continuous Discharge Rating — The 50C discharge rate means this battery can safely deliver very high current outputs, making it ideal for high-performance brushless setups and vehicles that demand aggressive acceleration and sustained power during competitive driving or extreme bashing conditions.
- Hard Case Protection — Unlike soft-case batteries, the protective hard shell casing surrounding the cells shields the battery from impacts, compressions, and physical damage that can occur during transport, storage, and active driving. This engineering choice significantly extends battery lifespan and reduces the risk of punctures or cell damage.
- Low-Profile Stick Pack Design — The compact stick pack form factor with dimensions of 139 x 46 x 49mm fits into a wider variety of RC vehicle chassis designs, offering greater flexibility compared to larger battery shapes. The low-profile dimensions are particularly suited to vehicles with limited battery compartment space.
- EC5 Pre-Fitted Connector — The Voltz battery arrives with a high-quality EC5 connector already soldered and ready to use, eliminating the need for connector modifications or compatibility concerns. Simply plug into any RC model with an EC5 connector socket and begin driving immediately.
- Strain Relief Clip Protection — A specialised strain relief clip has been engineered into the battery design to protect the delicate balance lead wires from excessive bending, pulling, or damage during installation and removal. This thoughtful feature significantly reduces the risk of balance connector failure.
- 74Wh Energy Rating — With a 74Wh energy specification, this battery delivers substantial power reserves that translate to consistent performance throughout extended driving sessions, maintaining voltage stability even under demanding discharge conditions.
Technical Performance
The Voltz 5000mAh 14.8V 50C hard case LiPo battery represents professional-grade engineering at an accessible price point. Built using lithium polymer cell technology, this battery is engineered to deliver high current output whilst maintaining stable voltage delivery during demanding acceleration and sustained high-performance driving. The 50C continuous discharge rating indicates this battery is specifically designed for brushless motor systems that require strong current delivery, making it ideally suited for RC cars, trucks, and buggies equipped with modern brushless ESCs (electronic speed controllers). The hard case construction employs durable materials that absorb impact energy, providing genuine protection against the bumps and crashes inevitable in RC driving. With professional build quality and rigorous testing protocols, this battery delivers the consistent power output that separates reliable performers from budget alternatives. The 74Wh energy content ensures that you'll experience sustained performance rather than voltage sag-related power loss during extended driving sessions. Whether used in competitive club racing environments or recreational bashing, this Voltz battery maintains the high engineering standards expected from batteries developed in partnership with leading manufacturers. The EC5 connector system provides excellent electrical conductivity and secure mechanical connection, critical factors for maximising power delivery efficiency and ensuring safe operation across diverse RC vehicle platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Voltz 5000mAh 50C LiPo suitable for brushless RC motors? — Yes, absolutely. This battery is specifically designed for brushless RC setups. The 50C continuous discharge rating provides the high current output that brushless motors require, and the 14.8V 4S configuration delivers optimal voltage for most brushless ESC and motor combinations found in modern RC cars, trucks, and buggies available in the UK market.
- What RC vehicles are compatible with this battery? — This battery is suitable for any RC vehicle that accepts a 4S LiPo pack with an EC5 connector. Common applications include brushless RC monster trucks, RC buggies, RC short course trucks, RC crawlers, and various other radio control vehicles. Always verify that your model's battery compartment can accommodate the 139 x 46 x 49mm dimensions and that it features an EC5 connector socket before purchasing.
- Can I upgrade my ready to run RC model with this battery? — This Voltz battery is an excellent upgrade option for RTR models originally supplied with smaller or lower-performance batteries. Many ready to run RC cars UK come with basic batteries that limit performance; upgrading to this 5000mAh 50C pack will significantly improve acceleration, top speed, and runtime compared to stock batteries included with most RTR kits.
- What is the difference between the 50C rating and other discharge rates? — The 50C rating indicates this battery can safely discharge at 50 times its capacity continuously. This means it can deliver 250 amps continuously (5000mAh × 50C = 250A). Higher discharge rates like 50C are necessary for high-performance brushless systems; lower-rated batteries would cause voltage sag and reduced performance in demanding applications.
- Why does this battery have a hard case? — The hard case provides physical protection for the lithium polymer cells against impacts, compressions, and punctures that soft-case batteries cannot withstand. Hard case batteries last longer, resist damage better during crashes and transport, and reduce the risk of dangerous cell damage or leakage.
- Is this battery suitable for club racing? — Yes. This Voltz battery is specifically mentioned as suitable for club racers. The consistent power delivery, reliable engineering, and proven performance make it appropriate for competitive racing environments where battery reliability is critical.
- What makes Voltz batteries good value? — Voltz batteries are tested and developed in partnership with leading battery manufacturers, ensuring high performance standards. Despite being keenly priced, they deliver the reliable power and build quality normally associated with premium brands, making them excellent value for money.
